My ETS date was June 2002, I was a 19k (tank crewman). My first day as a civilian I swore into the Air Force reserve. Word was they were stop holding tankers and calling them back in. No effing way I was going to war with the low lifes and criminals I served with in tank platoons in the late 90s. I understand recruiting did a lot better after 9/11, more motivated people. All I knew was if the Air Force has me the Army couldn’t get me. Peace brother.

Wow, that would be a great answer for the YC application's "Please tell us about the time you most successfully hacked some (non-computer) system to your advantage?" question.
